Here is the latest addition to my garage,......

It's a combination deal that consists of a JD Squared (Model 32) manual tubing bender, http://www.jd2.com/p-67-model-32-bender-manual.aspx that I converted to air/hydraulic system and a Harbor Freight (Pittsburg Tool), Tubing Roller # 99736. http://www.harborfreight.com/tubing-roller-99736.html

Here's a short video from John Bailey, guy that designed the frame assy,....

I bought the blueprints from Ebay for $9.99
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Air-hydraul...451?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3ce4dd5db3




I did a couple of test bends on some scrap tubing and it did great. Can't wait to start using it to build a new roll cage for my truck,......and other projects that come along.

SO KRA58H and craftsman side cabinet, SO needs a lock, lockbar, that special tool to remove the drawers, I tried using hacksaw blades but it didn't work.

Are those ball bearing or friction slide? Sears Canada made some nice boxes only available north of the border. :(

So I had an all red theme but when I found out they made yellow instinct that all went to hell lol....and then I won some orange long cabinet on ebay for cheap, so of course green pick set was next to add to the madness

Now I guess I need grey instinct

Why not? I couldn't even buy two sockets off the truck for the same price as all of this. Nice trays too.

It was the yellow ratcheting screwdriver that got me, then my driver had this yellow Epiq on his truck, now I have a yellow KRSC33 on the way, can't wait!

Also want a set of yellow pry bars and HBBD hammers to match as well. For some reason the Snap-on yellow looks much nicer and contrasty than DeWalt's.

$50 and some change.

Considering hex fasteners don't take to much torque, I bet they'll hold up quite nice!

I still have a Torx socket set, made by Autocraft that has held up for 6 years, even used an impact on them for taking off seat belts.

They don't take much torque to strip out either :bounce:

I have three sets of Torx, all 3/8" drive by Mastercraft. The smaller bits (<T30) could not take the torque at all and had very bad tactile feedback. 1/4" bit sockets fixed this problem.

Picked up a 9-piece set of the Craftsman branded angled socket wrenches. These angled specialty wrenches with through access feature a 12-point socket on one end with 6-point socket on the other end.

The SAE set pictured below consist of the following sizes: 1/4, 5/16, 3/8, 7/16, 1/2, 9/16, 5/8, 11/16, 3/4.

Made in France by Boost for FACOM, Sears marketed these under the Craftsman name in both SAE and metric sets of 9.

Where did you get these I would be interested in the Metric set and how much if I may ask?? Thanks :)

I really want to try a set of the style wrench.

Few weeks ago I picked this up for $80 from the Mac tools guy. How'd I do?

Stole it imo. Nice grab.

Cornwell 3/8" reversable air drill. Also picked up a Jakob's chuck for it but I haven't put it on because I don't have an allen small enough, lol. And a set of kobalt drill bits.

I picked this KD socket sitting on the Lisle too case to change the plugs in my F150. It has a 3" extention that swivels and permamently attached.



In order to make the job easier, I picked up the work platform from Rural King. It was on sale and rated at 225 lbs. I truly believe that is a true weight limit.
